DOHCstunr's 1994 Galant GS build thread *10/31/2012
On paper its a 1994.... but with all the money I've dumped into it since January 2009, I feel like I'm driving a 2010 7g Mitsubishi Galant GS. After you see what I've been through, you might agree.
About the car:
This is my 4th 7g Galant, and my 2nd GS 5 speed. With that said, this car is 11 years in the making.
The purpose behind my build was to simply build a car that I could enjoy in every possible way, and compete in any form I could.... all while keeping it daily.
I know that a great 1/4 mile car isn't going to be a great track or autox car, and neither one of those is going to make for an excellent daily driver.
So I built this car simply to be as good as it can be at any event, without sacrificing daily driven fun, or comfort.
My motivation
My philosophy for modding has always been: Modify it so it looks/performs/ flows like it could have come that way from the assembly line. So that it looks/feels/handles/performs/ and makes you smile the way that YOU feel it should have came from the assembly line.
I want people to look at my car, and not be able to point their finger at any one thing that stands out from the rest of their car.
I want them to say: THAT, is a nice car. Not, that is a sweet spoiler, or those are great graphics or wheels
Its all about flow with me. Its all about self expression, all while honoring and respecting the brilliant minds at Mitsubishi(or any car manufacturer for that matter).
